Right now, horror fans who have long held Robert Eggers in high esteem are having a field day, as the director leaves his biggest stamp yet on the world of cinema with the arrival of Nosferatu. Since the film’s arrival on Christmas Day 2024, audiences have been flocking to theaters to take a bite out of the toxic and undead love triangle between Lily-Rose Depp, Nicholas Hoult, and Bill Skarsgård.
Part of the beauty of The Lighthouse is the fact that the film is essentially solely carried on the shoulders of its two leading men — Robert Pattinson and Willem Dafoe. Shot in black and white, the color scheme fully gives into the desolate and dreary vibes that befall the two men working at a lighthouse in the 19th century.
Along with directing The Lighthouse, Eggers also co-penned the film’s script alongside his brother, Max Eggers, with the pair using an unfinished short story by Edgar Allan Poe as their stencil. The other Eggers brother has also gone on to pursue a career in the entertainment industry, pairing up with yet another sibling, Sam Eggers, to co-helm A24’s Brandy Norwood-led horror feature, The Front Room.
How Did 'The Lighthouse' Perform at the Box Office? Close When looking at Eggers’ repertoire, The Lighthouse is certainly the strangest of his offerings, which might be why it’s also the lowest earner, raking in just above $18 million at the global box office. This is in comparison to the aforementioned Nosferatu, which currently holds well over $156 million in worldwide ticket sales.
